Multimodal data acquisition at SARS-CoV-2 drive through screening centers: Setup description and experiences in Saarland, Germany
SARS-CoV-2 drive through screening
centers (DTSC) have been implemented
worldwide as a fast and secure way of
mass screening. We use DTSCs as a platform for the acquisition of multimodal
datasets that are needed for the development of remote screening methods. Our
acquisition setup consists of an array of
thermal, infrared and RGB cameras as
well as microphones and we apply
methods from computer vision and computer audition for the contactless estimation of physiological parameters. We have recorded a multimodal dataset of
DTSC participants in Germany for the development of remote screening
methods and symptom identification. Acquisition in the early stages of a pandemic and in regions with high infection rates can facilitate and speed up the
identification of infection specific symptoms and large-scale data acquisition at
DTSC is possible without disturbing the flow of operation
